Boot Trekker Review – SKI Magazine Stuff We Like

In their online article, Stuff We Like: Boot Bags – No matter your needs, these boot bags deliver, the good folks at SKI Magazine provided another great review for the KULKEA Boot Trekker. In the article introduction, it’s clear that Berne Broudy has lived through some of the same challenges KULKEA ski boot bags help to overcome. “Hauling your gear to the hill…can be a messy proposition, with gloves falling in the snow, goggles getting left in the car, etc.”

The solution, a great ski boot bag, “Can solve the problem by tucking away your goggles and gloves as well as your ski pass, extra layers, lunch, sunscreen, and anything else you need for a day on the hill.”

In the review KULKEA’s Boot Trekker was identified as one of SKI Mag’s “Faves for this season.”

“If organization is your main priority, Kulkea’s Boot Trekker is your bag. It carries your boots, one on each side with a closable vented panel. But boot carrying is only one of its functions. A large central gear compartment can be packed with bulky fleeces, snacks, helmet cam accessories, water bottles and more. A soft goggle pouch protects your eyewear, while designated single glove pockets help ensure you’re not leaving the resort without one. Dual wide mouth forward pockets hold more gear—use one for each kid you’re keeping track of, ID holders, document pockets, external zipper pockets, and clear zippered pockets—there is a pocket for everything you could possibly need to stash. Carry your load with adjustable padded shoulder straps and a waist belt, all sewn to a supportive back panel.”

In addition to identifying several unique features, we’re happy to read the call of our back friendly feature, “One of our favorite features: a back-saving pack release buckle that lets you disengage one shoulder strap and drop your load without twisting and bending. A deployable helmet sling holds your lid, and you can strap everything else onto a front gear loop.”

I pulled out my Lange RS 130’s and they were so easy to put on, and if you know that boot you will understand how hard that can be. The best part of this bag is it didn’t just warm up the shell and make it 75% easier to put on, it even warmed my liners.
